After this round of meritorious deeds, everyone is generally satisfied.

It was Xu Huang who was indignant, found Liu Bei and told him about the embarrassment on the battlefield, accusing Pang De of not grabbing his head, and thinking that the credit should still have his own share.

Pound said he was innocent.

He didn't see Xu Huang at that time, he saw the dead ghost in front of him, the enemy chief was dangling in front of him, as a general, how could he not raise a spear and stab him under the horse?

can only say that Xu Huang is not fast enough, or that Xu Huang is not as fast as him.

Pound looked dumbfounded.

Xu Huang gritted his teeth angrily, and wanted to give Pound a guy in the face.

Liu Bei laughed at this, asked Pang De not to be nervous anymore, and then patted Xu Huang on the shoulder, and told him that he was still young, and there would be opportunities in the future, and it was nothing for a while.

The capture was indeed won by Pang De, and then Liu Bei also told Xu Huang about the same experience he had with him, that is, he was robbed of his head by Guan Yu before, and he was very unhappy at the time, and he felt that it didn't matter later.

They are all their own comrades-in-arms, as long as the enemy is dead and the results are obtained, it doesn't matter what else, just look away.

Xu Huang suffered this loss, although he was still dissatisfied, but he couldn't help but listen to Liu Bei's words.

So Xu Huang could only glare at Pang De fiercely and give up.

After the internal problems were solved, Liu Bei reported the results of the war to the Luoyang Imperial Court, and loaded some of the trophies on the table to Liu Hong, preparing to exchange more rewards for his own group.

Next, until the first day of the second month, Liu Bei was dealing with the placement of the 140,000 prisoners of war captured this time.

It is still imitated in the previous way of dealing with the Xianbei people, and the Zhuang Ding are all pulled into the sequence of official servants, and the craftsmen are engaged in the unified management of the department, and are responsible for replacing the Liangzhou household registration population to engage in heavy manual labor such as forced labor.

The rewards that should be given to women of appropriate age will be distributed to the claimants when someone applies for them, so as to promote the population growth of Liangzhou.

This wave of Qiang women who were registered in Liangzhou was about 40,000, plus about 40,000 Han people who had re-entered Liangzhou household registration reported by various counties some time ago, and by the end of January of the fifth year of Zhongping, the registered population of Liangzhou officially exceeded 800,000, reaching more than 810,000.

Coupled with the number of officials and slaves in the Liangzhou craftsmen's catalog, the manpower available to the Liangzhou government as a whole has exceeded the million mark, and this number is still rising with the passage of time.

At present, with the strong promotion and implementation of many welfare policies such as encouraging childbirth, the return trend of the diaspora population in Liangzhou is obvious, and the number of people who have been reassigned to household registration reported by various counties and counties is still increasing, and the population work in Liangzhou has made great progress.

So Liu Bei wrote a report on the population and long-term development of Liangzhou and submitted it to Emperor Liu Hong, informing Liu Hong of his governance achievements and showing his ability to govern the locality.

To do things, but also to say what you have done.

The glory of the war is one thing, and the success of governing the local government is another, and putting one's own ability on the bright side will only be beneficial to the future control of the Luoyang Imperial Court, and there is no harm.

In addition to the achievements of the governance of Liangzhou, the promotion of salt sales in Sanfu has also been initially successful.

After Liu Bei lifted the biggest obstacle to Ma's, Ma really joined this salt trafficking alliance with a very smart attitude, and also made full use of his connections in Youfufeng and even Jing Zhaoyin to help the salt trafficking alliance open up a lot of joints, which can be regarded as a vote.

Therefore, with the cooperation of Liu Bei, the Son of Heaven, the eunuchs, the Ma clan and other aspects, the local forces and the official tax system in the three auxiliary places have learned certain lessons and points.

And Liangzhou fine salt has also quietly become a royal "tribute", and it is transported all the way in the identity of tribute, not as a commodity.

When passing through the checkpoints and ferries set up by the government, Liangzhou Fine Salt does not need to pay a high toll of 10% to 30%, and can pass without injury, so as to minimize the cost, quickly gain a firm foothold in the local salt shops, and quickly sweep the market.

Salt sales only need to pay salt taxes to local salt officials, which can save a lot of meaningless checkpoint taxes and increase the profits obtained by sellers.

At the same time, if the cost is limited, the selling price can be lowered, and it is also beneficial for the general public to buy.

The taste of Liangzhou fine salt is far better than the salt that everyone ate before, and now the price is relatively moderate, so it is a very simple thing to win people's hearts and conquer people's taste buds.

No one likes the taste of salt in the past, but in the past, in order to get the salty taste, they had to eat salt with a bitter taste, but now with the new Liangzhou fine salt, who will go after that bad taste?

The speed at which every household changes to eat Liangzhou fine salt is very fast, and it is not possible to think about it quickly, because the old table salt is no longer on sale.

While using Liangzhou fine salt to seize the market, the original salt that had been made was also packed into trucks, put on ships, and collectively transported to Liangzhou to be handed over to Liu Bei.

The "Liangzhou Fine Salt Processing Factory" newly established by Liu Bei in Hanyang County carried out the operation of "re-furnace and recasting" to remove impurities, complete the gorgeous turn, and then continue to sell and sell for money.

Since the middle of the first month of the fifth year of Zhongping, Liangzhou fine salt has successfully swept the salt market in Youfufeng, Zuo Fengyi and Jingzhaoyin.

After the disobedient salt farmers and the protective umbrella behind them were swallowed up by the eunuchs, the interests of this salt were completely stabilized in the land of Sanfu and divided among the forces involved.

The people involved understand a little bit about the benefits of selling salt, so they are not worried at all that their interests will not be protected, but rather, they are starting to worry about making too much money and how to spend it.

Especially Liu Hong, he will have the greatest share of interests, and the specific income brought to him by this benefit will be an astronomical amount that he will wake up with a smile in his dreams, and with this astronomical wealth, he can do whatever he wants.

So he began to think of building a new palace complex for himself, which was full of rare treasures in the world, including the most beautiful women in the world, introducing the most mellow peach wine, and then he wanted to have fun with the most beautiful women in the peach wine pool.

He also has a more grandiose dream, that is, to reproduce the legendary wine pond meat forest in his palace, although I don't know if the king of Shang has ever engaged in the wine pond meat forest, but when he heard that description, he felt that "the big husband should be like this".

Thinking that in the future, he can enjoy luxuriance and live happily in the wine pond meat forest, and he feels that his mood is about to fly with joy.

Liu Bei didn't have so many ideas, he mainly wanted to use the money to make some improvements to Liangzhou in terms of transportation, especially the roads for transporting salt, which needed to be rectified.

From Qinghai Lake to Ji County, and then from Ji County to Chang'an, these two sections of the road are waterways that can be used, and water transportation is far more convenient and efficient than land transportation, so no matter what long-distance actions the ancients did, they would give priority to waterways rather than land routes.

The transportation route planned by Liu Bei also makes full use of the three water systems of Huangshui, Taoshui and Weishui, which can be transported with water as much as possible, so as to greatly reduce the transportation cost of salt.

In places where land transportation had to be used, Liu Bei planned road repairs, and built strong, durable and smooth roads to places that could not be reached by water transportation, further reducing transportation costs.

This part of the plan can be handed over to the captured Qiang prisoners of war, so that they can pay the price for what they have done and build bridges and pave roads!

After completing a series of plans, on the first day of February in the fifth year of Zhongping, the Liangzhou State School set up by Liu Bei was successfully opened.

The first batch of Liangzhou State School enrolled 1,527 students, and then there were more than 500 people in the State Preparatory School, adding up to a total of more than 2,000 students.

The group of Liu's protégés suddenly became so big and big.

The first thing to do at the beginning of the school year is to conduct further exams and divide the students into two groups: the regular class and the elite class.

In order to save bamboo slips and pen and ink, the examination is mostly conducted in the form of face-to-face questions and answers, and the officials with a certain cultural literacy under Liu Bei are all pulled over as interview examiners, meeting these candidates one by one, asking them some slightly in-depth questions, and it is quickly possible to judge whether these candidates can enter the elite class or the ordinary class.

The final results show that it is not for nothing that Liangzhou is called a cultural desert.
